High Street Help What do you do when you wake up and you don’t feel well? You’ve got a sore throat and a headache. You feel sick and you can’t go to school. Well, you don’t always have to go to the doctor for help. First, you should visit your local chemist. You can go to them and ask for advice. Chemists will listen to you and suggest what pain killers or medicine you should take. They can tell you if you should stay at home or if you should see a doctor. They sell all kinds of painkillers and medicine so they should have something that you need.
Chemists don’t only sell medicines. They also
sell products such as shampoo, soap and perfume. They sometimes have a notice board on the wall where you can read notices about local exercise classes and clubs. We all know that we should eat healthy food and that we should exercise regularly, but we don’t always do it!
Most chemists are open from Monday to
Saturday from nine in the morning until 5.30 in the afternoon. They sometimes close for lunch from one until two, and in small towns they often close for one afternoon a week. But there’s always a chemist open in your area. Phone 098 558723 to find out which chemist in your area is open in the evening and on Sunday. Or you can look at the list in your chemist’s shop window.
Chemists are qualified professionals. They
can give you professional advice and save you a trip to the doctor. However, they aren’t doctors and if a baby is ill, or you have a serious health problem, you must call your doctor immediately.
